Life will break you. This book will teach you how to rise anyway.

In these pages, you'll find 83 real stories of people who lost everything — careers, families, faith, their own sense of worth — and built something better from the wreckage. It's not about toxic positivity or quick-fix slogans. It's about honest resilience, stubborn hope, and the quiet courage to stand again when it feels impossible. If you've fallen hard, or know you might someday, this is your map back to yourself, and better.
